Wednesday Moruing, Sept 6, 1854.
A protracted meeting commenced at the
Methodist Church iu this place last Sabbath.
We lenrn that it will continue through the
present week.
TJie officers of the " Yazoo City Guards"
would be much obliged te the members, if
they would return all of the arm and accou
trements which they may have in possesion,
to the Armory. The officers design procu
ring a new stand of arms for the company,
but cannot do so, uniil all of the old tad
aro collected and returned to the Armory at
Jackson. They call upon the members to
make diligent search and inquiry and to use
all possible exertions to restore the missing
peaces, ..
Five Dou.aus Rewab will be paid by
tholZJArrAiN, for the delivery of the musket
borrpwed from. the " Guards."

lig ot' last Friday has probaJj4r
ddseiir. Welch, agent for Monlf's Maps,
some injustice in offering a reward of ten
cents for his' apprehension, and speaking
Otherwise disparagingly of him.
Mr. Welch made us the same promise, and
not over two weeks ago he promptly fulfilled
it by leaving with us a beautiful Map of the
United States and its territories. Mr. W
informed fts at the time that his stock was
exhausted, but as soon as he could receive a
supply from Memphis, he would attend all cf
his engagements' in this quarter. Perhaps,
if the Whig had waited "for a few days"
air-grounds of complaint would have been
removed.

The Jsesv American Gold Dollar. The
editor of the Washington Star has seen a new
dollar coin sent to the Secretary of the
Treasury, from the Philadelphia Mint
for his sanction. "In siae it is about
that of a five cent piece ; on one side it -has
an Indian head with a crown of feathers,
atteh asona sees at limes QJ? tobacco boxes.
The boad is surrounded by the words Unijjf
ted States of America.' On the reverse side
there is an open wreath composed of the pi A
cipal staple agricultural productions of the
ccuatry Wheat, corn, cotton, tobacco and
rice. This wreath, surrounds the words, One
Dollar 854.' In apjearance, on this side
especially, it precisely resembles the three
dollar coin. On the whole, it is a beautiful
thing, jfnd its greater diameter will be lfkely
to rnae it much more generally acceptable
than the dollar coin now in circulation, which
fanar proven very inconvenient indeed, oa ac
count of its too small diameter."

(Sett. Quitman.
This gentleman is out in a letter defending
himseL from the aspersions which Judge
juo. A. Campbell of tho United State. Cir
cuit Court at New Orleans, has endeavored to
fix upon him. It will be remembered that
Gen. Quitman amongst others, was not long
since summoned before the court over which
judge Campbell presides, to answer the charge
of a participation in tho late filibuster move
ment against Cuba, and of a violation of the
neutrality laws. These charges were investi
gated by the Grand Jury and dismissed with
out evidence to sustain them. The Judge
hot satisfied w ith the report of the Jury, and
in the absence of any well founded accusa
tion, ordered Gen. Quitman to enter into re
cognizance with sureties to observe the laws
of the United States generally, and the neu
trality laws particularly for nine mouths, and
in default, to be impfcned for that length oi
tinie in the Parish jail. These atbitary pro
ceedings of Judge Campbell were severely
censured by a portion of the Southern press,
and his conduct in the premises, denounced
as unwarrantable and despotic.
A defence of this font nonary's course late
ly appeared in a New Orleans paper, in which
LGen. Quiirmin is made to appear as a party
defendant to a suit of whici the United States
of America is plaintiff. Judge Campbell was
the accuser in the first place ; he has since
made out the case and, gave it a? name, with
out either a charge, accusation or complaint,
made by the government.
Gen. Quitman has been both insulted and
injured by this meddling Official, and his
conduct held up to the public in a false-light,
and his acts and intentions ignorantly, if not
purposely shamefully misrepsented. The de
fence of the old hero, to this attempt at defa
mation is triumphant and complete.
Judge Campbell attempts to justify his ex
iraordimuy proceedings by averting that pub
lic rumor,
That brazen mouthed monster with her hun
dred tongues,
d compelled him thus to act. Gen. Quit
man meets this delectable subterfuge, and
thus proceeds :
Public Bumor, aided by her fit associate John
A. Campbell, is engaged in trumpeting to the
world thatsuspicioo attache to my name. Sus
picion of what? Of being the open advocate of
State Rights, strict construction, tree trade,
direct taxation, the remodeling of our Federul
Judicial system, the limitation of the tenure of
office of the Federal Judges, and their election
by the people ? Suspicion of having aided and
abetted the independence and annexation of
Texas and the conquest of Mexico ? Suspicion
of never having faltered in the defence of South
ern rights, and of the equality of the States?
Of admiring American institutions and desiring
tlieir externum over this continent? Suspicion
of cordially hating the stupid and barbarous dis-
mon ot Spain over the people ol Cuba? Ut
ng in conjunction with other patriotic
s some lawful measures to aid an oppress-
el people to overthrow ine ivramcat aim uearp-
v eminent, and thus avertitje from our
selves and our children the dire calamity whichd
would befell 03, ii the cherished European poa
cy tt establishing a hostile negro o mongrel em
pire on our orders, at the very mouth of the great
ou'let mi the Southwestern States, should be car
ried into execution ? Of doubting the ability or
disposition of our common Government., already
distracted by the slavery question, toemedy the
impending evil?
If such suspicions attach to my name, before
the wo.ld, 1 confess myself liable to the honor or
reproach which belongs to them. If, however,
Jodie, Campbell means to insinuate that suspi
cions dishonorable to me attach to my name, he
but adds a falsehood to the many misrepresenta
tions of facts contained in his published opinion.
Suspicion to my name ! The name is Saxon.
It means free man. It has never been disgraced
bv iatsehood, cowardice or base trucklingo -ow-er.
May those who inherit it be ever wpjrfiv to
bear it, by opposition to all political despotism,
and by stern, unyielding resistance to tyrany,
whether boldly attempted to be enforced by the
bayonet, or slyly and stealthily by the perver
sion of judicial powers."
Racixo. We observe by the last number
of the Spirit of the Times that Col. Minor
has executed the request of Gen. Wells, by a
challengo to the world to run Lecomte on the
Metairie, Natchez or Mobile course any day,
any distance, for any sum of money and
against any horse I It remains to be seen
now whether Mr. Ten Broeck was in earnest
in his frequently expressed offersj and opin
ions concerning Lexington
The same number of the same paper con
tains a letter from Mr. John Belcher, of the
Richmond (Va.) course, offering Bed Eye

VUe Memphis Navy Ifard.
The Memphis papers manifest great indig
nation at tho ac$ of Congress donating to
that city tltc Kavy Ynrd Lands and appurte
nances established at that place.
The Appeal declares the act lo be a strange
caprice, an unaccountable freak, a prodigal
waste of the public money, and a still more
prodigal betrayal of the rights and interests
of a proscribed and insulted section of the
country. The City Council met on the &2d.,
ult, to accept the proposition of Congress,
but adjourned without taking final actio, in
order as we suppose, to get a better knowl
edge of public opinion from that part of the
community immediately concerned in the
transfer. It is urged with much plausibility
that the City authorities should forbear to
act in the matter until the meeting of Con
gress in December next ; by which time the
sense of the South and South-west can be
had on the, subject, We believe that it was
not the intention of Congress to abolish the
naval depot, or cede it away without the con
currenee of Memphis, and the interested por
tion of the country. While the government is
extending a fostering care, and bestowing aid
And comfort to other similar estabii aliments
in the North and East, it would certaiuly be
an -act of great injustice to withdraw all
countenance and support from the South and
West The feasibility of this project was
questioned, at the time, it was established,
and raatiy violent objections offered ; but they
were overcome by the yifluence of Mason,
Bancroft, and Lieut. Maury, and the argu
ments of Foster, Ashe, akd Cave Johnson.
Tho same objections th:r were raised then
are revived now. but as they proved insuffi
cient at that time, they shouVJ not now bo
euuuv;uvjin to uecout icbpocu e uu uui
believe that this act of donation was intend
ed as a direct insult. Tho legislation, it is
true, was hasty, but we are loatu to believe
that it was corrupt. Congress unquestiona
bly did wrong in policy in thus summarily
abandoning this establishment; but the act
was not certainly influenced by any disre
spectful feelings tords the City of.Mempb.is,
or the directly interested section of the coun
try. It was a mere action of mistaken eeoii
omy, or the result of an enoaeons opirfloD
iu relation to its entire position.
The City Council ought not to take ulti
mate action in the matter, until a remon
strance can reach Congress, r.nd in the mean
time we think that the press, especially that
portion of it friendly to the administration,
should not indulge in the abuse and denun
ciation of the highest legislative body of the
country, on which so much defends the fu
ture hopes and prospects of the nation.

The Mayor of Vicksburg has issued a pro
clamation to correct a report which certain
persons, through ignorance, r malicious in

Yellow Fever had made its appearance in

the health of the city was never better than
at presenty that not a solitary case of Yellow
Fever has yet occurred, and in the opinion of
the physicians nothing of the kind need be
apprehended this season. We hope that
this agreeable condition of tilings may long
continue. We learn that a similar impres
sion prevails abroad with regard to this place.

The Public Lands and Senator
Hunter.
The bill of Senator Hunter which passed
the Senate at the last session, and which
would have passd the House had there been
time, is now generally discussed by the press
of the country. The expression is in a large
degree favorable to Mr. Hunter's plan. His
proposition is regarded as coming nearer to a
settlement of a great question, and as calcu
lated to give more extended satisfaction, than
perhaps any other which has been presented.
The passage of Mr. Cobb's graduation bill,
at I he close of the last session, may render
amendment of the bill of Mr. Hauter neces
sary before Congress closes its second term ;
but it is quite time that the whole subject
should be disposed of, now that we have al
most reached a point upon which we can
agree. We are not surprised that objections
should be made to this project; the subject
is too vast not to excite differences ; but that
Mr. Hunter should be made an object of per
sonal assault in his own State, strikes us as
very extraordinary. There is a class of men
never content unless they have everything
their own way. When all others approve,
they cavil and complain. They seem to do
light in beiug different from others, in oppo
sing for the mere sake of opposition, and in
finding fault, no matter how coarsely and un
seasonably. Several of this class are great
ly out of humor with Senator Huuter be
cause of his laud bill. They know they can
not get all they may need ; but they will not
yield. It must be "all or, none;" and in ta
king this course they willingly disregard the
sensible anel practical advice of John C. Cal
houn on this very subject. We are indebted
to the editor of the Richmond Enquirer for
producing this excellent admonition:
" Mr. Calhoun (says the Enquirer) did not
pretend that his plan was absolutely perfect
and exempt from all possible objection. On
the contrary, he preferred the existiug sys
tem ; but, foreseeing its eventual overthrow,
and anxious to escape a great calamity which
his prophetic eye discerned in the not distant
future, he submitted his substitute, and de
fended it from the assaults of Webster and
Clay, with that power of argument for which
lie was conspicuous. Like our own distin
ijuihed senator, Mr. Calhoun was taunted
with desertion ot
compromise ot principle;

we must do as we are often compelled to dofiQ their Lodre iu Y fi State
through life
accommodate ourselves to cir-i
cumstances ; mitigate evils we cannot ovei
come, and retard aud lessen those we cannot
prevent. Such are the laws to which beings
of our limited powers and control over events
must necessarily yield.' I regard it,' said
he further, as one of the wisest maxims in
human affaire, that when we see an inevita
ble evil like this, not to be resisted, appioach
ng, to make concessions in time, while we can
do it with dignity, and not to wait until ne
cessity compels us to act, and when conces
sion instead of gratitude will excite con
tempt. The maxim is not new. I have de
rived it from the greatest of modern states
men, Edmund Bnike. He urged its adop
tion on fehe British government iri the early
stages of our revoiution ; and if the obsti
nate and infatuated statesman, Lord Noi th,
then at the head of affairs, had listened to
his warning voice, it may be doubted wheth
er our revolution would have taken plate.'
The 'inevitable evil,' to which allusion is
made in this paragraph, is more distinctly
indicated in the following: 'Let it be borne
iu mind that all sides agree that the new
States will soon be able to command their
owu terms, when others less favorable to the
common interest' (than those proposed by
Mr. Calhoun) 'will be imposed. If we of the
old States make it a poiut to hold out to the
last, they will, by a necessary reaction, make
it a point to extort' all they can when they
get the power. But if we yield in time, a
durable arrangement may be made mutually
beneficial and satisfactory to both parties.'
Arain, iu the same speech, Mr. Calhoun said:
' This measurer reluctantly forced upon me by
the necessity ef the case, has been introduced
with a desire to terminate great political
evils,' and 'I think, therefore, that instead of
attempting to resist any longer what must
eventually happen, it would be better for all
concerned that Congress should yield at once
to the force of circumstances, and cede the pub
lic domain.'1 "
This is the counsel of a great man an
uncompromising man a bolel and sagacious
thinker a pure patriot. We may apply it
to every question with great effect to the
question of slavery, to rivers and harbors, to
public lands, and toalmost every subject of
national legislation. North and South should
ponder it well. Mr. Hunter stands too high
in the affections of his country to bo dam
aged by unfair and violent criticism.
He is one of the leading minds of the na
tion; he is a model statesman ; he is labori
ous, economical, upright, and orthodox. If
he can settle, or help to settle, the public-land
question, he will be rendering a service to his
country that will far outweigh all temporary
praise or blame. Washington Union.
Ksor Nothixgism. It is very evident that
the fathers of the American Republic were
not KnowNothings, for we find that the
Continental Congress, in the Declaration of
Independence, made the following, as a seri
ous charge against the King, and assigned it I
as one of the reasons why the Colonies should
throw off the yoke of England, viz :
"He has endeavored to prevent the popu
lation of these States ; for that purpose, ob
structing the laws of naturalization of for
eigners; refusing to pass others to encourage
their migration hither, and raising the con
ditions of new appropriations of lands."
If those old Continental Congressmen, who
made the above charge against the King of
England, had lived in these days, they would
be deemed enemies of American institutions,
and the Know Nothings would take espec
ial care that none of them were re-elected to
Congress.
